@SeanGGodley Is it possible to add you on facebook?

Capablanca was a master at maximising effectiveness of his pieces and unrelenting pressure on the opponents position.

[SeanGGodley]

That's great, glad you like them and that they're helping you! Yes Garech is my middle name, why do you ask??

[Mrius86]

I searched the name Godley on Facebook, sorry, didn`t mean to be creepy or something! :)

[SeanGGodley]

Study...

[Curlyq1515]

heh nice vid as usual, but what advice do u have for a person to imporove their skills besides just playing chess over and over again

[geekorthodox9]

the capablanca source is available in pdf format, i haven't had time to study it yet.

[KevinByrne2]

@geekorthodox9 -- Thank you VERY much for mentioning that Capablanca's book "Chess Fundamentals" is available on the Internet in pdf format. I quickly found it. Great book (as Sean Godley has shown in his video series). Again, many thanks.

[SeanGGodley]

Well, study is a very important element, just like with anything else - learning endgame theory, postional skills for the middlegame, and so on - there are dozens of little tricks and tactics etc that will improve your game massively. I advise getting some books along these lines of you don't have any already. The series published by "Gambit" are excellent. Hope this helps, and all the best,

Sean
